Update Speculation thread

can we please just all hope it gonna be a Opel/Vauxhall Frontera A

 

Isn’t the Frontera basically a rebadged Isuzu Rodeo? I’d imagine if it were that, it would be Ibishu branded then.

I’m sticking with my ETK G-wagon guess, but you may be right about that too

 

yes but Opel/Vauxhall is the original

 

I hear Frontera and just think of this:

 

Saw this teaser on facebook before on forums, official account said its not a new brand. My guess is FPU

 

HAHA totally forgot about it

 

i hope it isn't military-related, considering we already have the stambecco, i feel this vehicle could be a bit too similar to it.

 

im guessing it will have some military configs but not be like entirely military focused

 

I would like a 8x8 (or more) off-road truck like in mother land from FPU, The truck could be related for the military (hauling balistics missile or what else) or civilians (hauling heavy cargo like marble, oil pipes and heavy vehicles like the heavy machinery from Hirochi).
Some trailers could be adapted for it size. I hope also they will add a semi- automatic hydraulic transmission.

 

I’d imagine so. Especially if it’s an etk g-wagon sort of thing. That’s such a versatile platform that there could be everything from utility and military trucks to luxury and TTsport/rennspecht configs.

 

Frontera/Rodeo is also a good shout, never actually thought about that. It does make sense considering the last 2 updates we got european vehicles, but I feel like the G wagon is more likely considering what @LanciaDelta04 said.

 

you where right

 

Not sure if it'll be an fpu or not, I can't really see them making passenger vehicles and I feel like its more likely they'd make stuff for the military. This is just speculating, cause there is a possibility theyre similar to FSO and do make cars or types of trucks. I'm hoping it's an ETK since we haven't gotten anything new from them in well over a decade, and it would diversify their lineup with a body on frame vehicle. If it was an Autobello, it could feel too similar to stambecco. I'm hoping for distinct military and civilian versions, maybe a long production run, diesels and several body styles if its g wagen like.

 

i hope either frontera or g wagen

 

Wish I was right about the Percheron actually being a Swedish truck like a Volvo, but oh well

I like the idea of this being an ETK SUV like the iconic G-Wagen. This being an FPU vehicle would be crazy, but the devs clearly be crazy with making semi trailers and garage-built offroad toys come from the same brand, so I'm not confident about anything anymore.

 

It would be cool if the new vehicle (or the Hopper remaster, since that's also a possibility) had some badge engineering configurations. For example, I can imagine a body-on-frame SUV sold under the Ibishu brand in Japan and in North America and under the ETK brand in Europe (just like the first generation Land Rover Discovery, which was the Honda Crossroad in Japan).

 

Do you think we could have a part 2 of the Percheron ? Because I feel they didn't drop all the chassis of the truck if we watch the teaser with "!?"

 

Btw if it’ll be another cherrier I’ll jump off a bridge

In the new car, that is…

 

I feel like it is time for a new map.

and especially a remaster of ETK centre.

Is anyone aware of any potential map teasers in the past year? I am holding out hope for a new map.

 

I’d imagine it’s possible. There seems to be room for more content in the Percheron roster. We’re still missing a dump truck, log truck, and “chaos” config, so I could see a part two, much like the T-series had.

I hate to say it but the Peugeot P4 exists……

I highly doubt that will be what we get, as that was exclusively a military vehicle, but it’s VERY slimly on the table.

I will say I’m still wondering about a European (maybe French) map for this next update. If we follow our typical 4 year schedule for new maps, we’re due for one in 0.41. We’ve been getting an awful lot of French content lately, and we still don’t know what that map was in the rockbasher teaser for 0.39. I asked a French tutor of mine who is from France, and she said it looked an awful lot like southern France. We did, however get a German livery for the Percheron. Maybe either a French map or an expansion to ETK driving center? (which would make TONS of sense if this car is an ETK)
